It is true that children are not property that is bequeathed to someone and the instruction you give in the will will go through the court which will examine what is in the best interests of the children at the time when it is necessary to determine where and with whom they will grow up.
It is clear that the will of the parents will be a significant and even decisive consideration, but not the only one.
There must be a really significant change in circumstances from the date the will was made until the date the court will have to determine so that the parents' will is not fulfilled.
The example of Ethan's tragedy illustrates the importance of making a will in the circumstances in which they were temporarily in Italy.
If the parents had made a will in which they expressed their desire for him to grow up in Israel (or in Italy), it would have been easier to decide.

My heart goes out to all sides. There is no doubt that each side loves him and everyone acts from where he sees Eitan's good. There is no one answer and every ruling that will be accepted will be between bad and bad because every choice will have a price that it will pay beyond its terrible loss. Whatever the outcome, whether the court orders him to return to Italy where he lived until the terrible disaster, or orders him to stay in Israel, I find it hard to believe that this will happen, especially due to the fact that the issue has already been discussed in Italian court. To Israel.
There are two ways in which you can order who will raise your children if the parents can not if due to a disaster that will lead to their death or serious injury as a result they will lose the ability to raise them.
One way is to have a will made by young people that will include teaching who they want to raise their children in case God forbid both parents die.
My late mother used to say, "An old man should die, a young man might die." It is never too early to make a will. Even if you do not have property to bequeath to your toddler children. One has to consider what if, God forbid, both parents die. You can determine who will raise the children if God forbid both parents die and leave young children.
The second way to determine who will raise your children if, God forbid, a catastrophe occurs as a result of which you will not be able to raise the children, is by signing a letter of expression.
This document is a document signed and submitted online on the Custodian General website where you can determine who you appoint as a guardian for children (or who you appoint as a guardian in case you are appointed as a guardian for a person with special needs for any reason). The document includes guidelines for determining who will take care of the child, who will replace in case the same person is unable to raise the child and it even allows the same parent to give instructions on how to raise the child.
The great advantage of both ways is that both can be changed over the years according to the changes in life, reality and life circumstances. Anyone can make a new will and cancel the previous one and anyone can submit a letter of intent that cancels the previous one and changes the instructions according to the changes that have taken place in your life.
Think about it, do not be afraid to deal with the issue and you will be able to sleep soundly knowing that you have taken care of your children and relatives and hopefully it will remain a document that was not needed.
